Responses from residents at University of Vermont Medical Center to the survey question ‘Any thoughts or comments on the Nephrology rotation?’

‘I think it was probably the most organized rotation I have gone through during my residency. I would have liked a bit more time. I would have also liked to actually do a home visit with the Home Dialysis program.’

‘I liked it—It exposed me to the outpatient side of nephro. It would have been cool to have seen more HTN, since that is so prevalent. Fellows and attendings were all cool to work with.’

‘It was great! I learned a lot and had a great time! The faculty loves to teach and everyone took time to do so! I wish I would have had the rotation earlier in my residency training.’

‘I enjoyed the nephrology rotation. I felt that the attendings were warm and welcoming. Even though it was a short rotation, I feel that it was a valuable experience.’

‘Really liked having both inpatient and outpatient experience particularly renal transplant clinic and Joy drive [outpatient dialysis unit].’

‘Much better than it used to be. I felt like I was part of the team. the support staff especially at clinic were wonderful.’

HTN, hypertension.
